Tara is patient and a great listener to things I'm not saying. She has helped give me a language to things and challenged me with practical tools to deal with my anxiety.

Tara is amazing! She understood what I needed very early from our first conversation and helps me to move forward and implement action items at a pace I am comfortable with. Would highly recommend giving her a chance, as I am not easily impressed or to give a review.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
